Fuzzy logic is introduced to study the uncertainty of the event. In Fuzzy set theory we assign a membership value to each element of the set which ranges from 0 to 1. The earnest efforts of the researchers are perceivable in the relevant establishment of the subject integrating coherent practicality and reality. Fuzzy graphs found an escalating number of applications in day to day life system where the information intrinsic in the system varies with different levels of accuracy. In this article we initiated the model of fuzzy Euler graphs (FEG) and also fuzzy Hamiltonian graphs (FHG). We explored about fuzzy walk, fuzzy path, fuzzy bridge, fuzzy cut node, fuzzy tree, fuzzy blocks, fuzzy Eulerian circuit and fuzzy Hamiltonian cycle. Here we studied some applications of Fuzzy Eulerian graphs and fuzzy Hamiltonian graphs in real life. 11 30 2019 7995 7999 CC-BY-NC-ND 4.0 10.35940/BEIESP.CrossMarkPolicy www.ijrte.org true 10.35940/ijrte.D4386.118419 https://www.ijrte.org/portfolio-item/D4386118419/ Institute of Public Administration and Civil Service of the Russian Presidential Academy of National Economy and Public Administration, Moscow, Russia.

The article analyzes the specifics of ensuring the protection of the right to education in case-law decisions of the European Court of Human Rights. The authors have found that there are problems in the current education systems both in Europe and Russia. These problems are solved in accordance with the case law created by the European Court of Human Rights making decisions to ensure the right to education. The authors have noted the main violations committed by governments or governmental bodies in its implementation. The authors have shown the correspondence of the norms of national education legislation of a number of European countries to the provisions of the European Convention on Human Rights. In this regard, the authors have concluded that today, the right to education in European states is not always respected due to migration policy and in the future, relations in this area will deteriorate. 11 30 2019 9035 9038 CC-BY-NC-ND 4.0 10.35940/BEIESP.CrossMarkPolicy www.ijrte.org true 10.35940/ijrte.D4388.118419 https://www.ijrte.org/portfolio-item/D4388118419/ Assistant Professor, NIFT, Hyderabad, India.

Health-care Environment has now established science and knowledge based on technology-oriented wireless-sensing node. Patients face an unexpected mortality is worried due to the specific cause of health problems and mainly heart problems or attack that is due to the deficiency of good medical treatment for patients at the in time. This is to track the patients of the old age in general and to train physicians and loved ones. They are therefore proposing a motivated plan to reduce these unexpected death rates through the use of Patient Health Care Monitoring, using sensor network technologies and using the web Application to connect with loved ones when problems occurs. This system uses Heart Rate, Body Temperature and ECG sensor Modules to monitor the wellbeing of patients. The project Implementation using Raspberry Pi, Arduino Mega and MCP3008 ADC converter is used. In addition, the Camera Interface and Wi-Fi link are interfaced to track the patient's health using Raspberry Pi controller to send the data to the UbiDots web server (Cloud Computing Analysis) platform. Hence are there any one Patient Health parameter changes its threshold values it gives alerts to the Doctors with time stamp and patient live video also they can streaming their mobiles. 11 30 2019 8005 8012 CC-BY-NC-ND 4.0 10.35940/BEIESP.CrossMarkPolicy www.ijrte.org true 10.35940/ijrte.D4391.118419 https://www.ijrte.org/portfolio-item/D4391118419/ Professor, Faculty of Law, Aligarh Muslim University, Aligarh-202001(U.P./India) Z.M.

Kamruzzaman* Credit institutions are critical organizations whose role in society and modern economy is very important for issuing loan to individuals, businesses and other organizations. Before such institutions came to the scene, there was no secure place for individuals and businesses to get credit, which caused a lot of chaos. The proposed loan management system brings various loan portfolios on one platform to assist the atomization of servicing and management of such credit institutions. Branches of credit institutions are connected with the loan management system. If client provides all required information and submit all required documents, the loan underwriter will verify and approve the loan from the system. The proposed system will automatically inform to the applicant with required information for proceeding. Loan underwriter can manage and monitor multiple loan portfolios from multiple locations through a single platform starting from prospecting to closure. The proposed system also simplifies the decision making processes. The architecture of loan management system using ISI Server, PhP and MySql is proposed in this work. The suggested architecture consists of four primary components: Clients, internet link, server, and branches of credit institutions. Clients can register, apply and trace their loan through online via desktop, laptop, and portable tablet or mobile. A dependable and safe server is taken into account to actualize the framework. In addition, reliability and security problems considered for designing the system are stated here. Some portion of the suggested architecture is currently being implemented and tested that is also outlined in this paper. 11 30 2019 8017 8022 CC-BY-NC-ND 4.0 10.35940/BEIESP.CrossMarkPolicy www.ijrte.org true 10.35940/ijrte.D4415.118419 https://www.ijrte.org/portfolio-item/D4415118419/ Assistant Professor, Department of Computer Science, PSPT MGR Government Arts & Science College, Sirkali – Puthur -609108, Tamilnadu, India .

Diabetes mellitus is defined as a one of the chronic and deadliest diseases which combined with abnormally high level of sugar (glucose) in the blood. The classification technique helps in diagnosis the symptoms at starting stages. This paper focused to prognosticate the chance of diabetes in patients with extremely correct classification of Diabetes. The classification algorithms viz., Naïve Bayes, Logistic Regression, and Decision Tree can be used to detect diabetes at an early stage. The algorithm performances are evaluated based on various measures like Recall, Precision, and F-Measure. Experiments are conducted where the time complexity of each of the algorithm is measured. Accuracy is also measured over correct classification and misclassification instances, observed that a Logistic Regression algorithm has much better performance when compared to the other type classifications. Using Receiver Operating Characteristic curves the results are verified in a systematic manner. 11 30 2019 9044 9049 CC-BY-NC-ND 4.0 10.35940/BEIESP.CrossMarkPolicy www.ijrte.org true 10.35940/ijrte.D4429.118419 https://www.ijrte.org/portfolio-item/D4429118419/ ECE Department, SPMVV, chool Of Engineering And Technology, Tirupati, Andhrapradesh, India.

As images plays a vital in all aspects, there is a need to met the real time requirements in processing the image. Major challenges raised in processing the image is noise. The utmost typical difficult is effective denoising creation as well as quick functioning in the processing of digital image noise suppression process for the need of real time consequences to afford image with high quality this project was introduced. Generally filters plays a major role to remove the impulse noise in acquired images. The filter named sliding window spatial filter which is familiar as median filter is effective technique to eradicate impulse noise from the devoleped image. But in real time, it is very difficult to execute. To overcome this, FPGA methodology is introduced to fulfills the support besides the optimization of major constraints like area, speed, power. In addition to this, it assures technical sustenance of eradicating noise in image as per requirements in real time. Regarding the design and structure appearances in FPGA, Xilinx software is used for simulation and code has been written in Verilog language. 11 30 2019 7855 7858 CC-BY-NC-ND 4.0 10.35940/BEIESP.CrossMarkPolicy www.ijrte.org true 10.35940/ijrte.D4437.118419 https://www.ijrte.org/portfolio-item/D4437118419/ Scientist ‘G’ Head, Reliability Engineering Division, Research Centre Imarat, Vignyanakancha Po, Hyderabad, India K.V.B.V Rayudu* Scientist ‘G Research Centre Imarat, Vignyana Kancha Po, Hyderabad, India Dr P Srihari Rao Associate Professor, NIT Warangal, Telangana, India Memory testing and fault detection is an important phase in testing the hardware devices. This improves the overall performance of the system and prevents runtime failures in the devices. Built In Self Test (BIST) is a hardware memory test architecture deployed in many System on Chip devices to enable fault detection. This technique reduces the cost and time needed to test the memory systems. Different BIST modules need to be used to detect faults in different memories. As a result, design complexity increases. In order to overcome these above shortcomings, it is essential to develop advanced extensible Interface (AXI) with Block Random Access Memory (BRAM) and Design and Develop AXI based self-test memory architecture (March Algorithms) to achieve parallel read and write capability. The proposed model reduced the dynamic power and the clock cycles needed for simulation when compared to existing techniques. 11 30 2019 8023 8029 CC-BY-NC-ND 4.0 10.35940/BEIESP.CrossMarkPolicy www.ijrte.org true 10.35940/ijrte.D4446.118419 https://www.ijrte.org/portfolio-item/D4446118419/ Russian State University of Oil and Gas (National Research University) named after I.M.

Open-configuration MRI for easy patient access causes a restricted imaging field of view and geometric distortion resulting in reduced reliability of the quantitation of tissue segmentation. The method proposed in this study is use of MR image stitching, which is merging divided isocentric images without geometric distortion of the same object through the table moving laterally. This study was performed using an open 0.32 T MRI system. MR imaging with lateral shift of the scanner table was conducted using an AAPM MRI Phantom. The composite image produced through the sequential generation of the same object at different table positions has been generated using the image stitching technique. Image stitching consisted of tile configurations using optimized global registration and then seamlessly blending the aligned tiles. The overall image stitching procedure reduced the geometric distortion of image at off-center regions, and the FOV in the stitched image was extended 40% laterally relative to conventional isocenter image. The maximum distortion value was about 16.8 mm in the conventional image and was reduced to < 1.7 mm after the seamless image stitching procedure. Laterally extended FOV without geometric distortion was successfully acquired using seamless image stitching procedure. These methods are beneficial towards defining tissue segmentation in obese patient with large field of view in open MRI. 11 30 2019 9065 9068 CC-BY-NC-ND 4.0 10.35940/BEIESP.CrossMarkPolicy www.ijrte.org true 10.35940/ijrte.D4517.118419 https://www.ijrte.org/portfolio-item/D4517118419/ Dean Academics Department of EC RabrindraNath Tagore University Bhopal, India Sanjeev Gupta Ravitesh Mishra Assistant Professor Department of EC RabrindraNath Tagore University Bhopal, India The first aim of the thesis is to design feature selection and classification algorithms to distinguish between binary and multiple mental states.

Damping-off is one of the severe diseases caused by soil-borne pathogens notably Pythium sp. the causative agent of this infection in raising tree saplings in forest nurseries. Biological control is an eco-friendly approach in disease management compared to chemical fungicides which in turn affects the soil environment. Biocontrol of Pythium sp. has been emphasized in vegetable nurseries than forest nurseries. The present research work is focused on identification of effective antagonistic organism from forest nursery soils against Pythium aphanidermatum. Bacteria were isolated from various forest soils collected from Boluvampati, Sirumugai and Mettupalayam forest nurseries in Coimbatore district and soil samples were screened for antifungal activity against Pythium aphanidermatum by dual culture technique. Among 245 bacterial isolates, one isolate KUMB1.1 exhibited clear zone of inhibition of 1cm and it was identified by 16S rDNA sequencing as Streptomyces sp. Solvent extraction was performed to isolate an active compound using ethyl acetate, dichloromethane, n-butanol, hexane and chloroform in the ratio 1:1. The antifungal activity of compound was performed by well plate method against Pythium sp. and n-butanol extract exhibited zone of inhibition. The antifungal activity of Streptomyces sp. was tested in a model plant Solanum lycopersicum (Tomato) seeds raised in Pythium aphanidermatum infested soils in seed trays under in vitro conditions. Pre-emergence and post-emergence disease incidences were observed, and the results exhibited promising efficacy of Streptomyces sp. against the fungal pathogen Pythium aphanidermatum. Seedbed study was carried out in Gmelina arborea seeds, where the seeds are treated with Streptomyces culture broth. In which seed treatment shows 43% increase in germination compared with control. 11 30 2019 8035 8039 CC-BY-NC-ND 4.0 10.35940/BEIESP.CrossMarkPolicy www.ijrte.org true 10.35940/ijrte.D4531.118419 https://www.ijrte.org/portfolio-item/D4531118419/ Plekhanov Russian University of Economics, Moscow, Russia.

The Russian fishing industry is a strategically important element in ensuring the country's food security. It has established production, technological, and economic ties with many industries and types of economic activity and plays an important social role. However, the current state of the Russian fishing industry is primarily described by the loss of competitive positions in both domestic and foreign markets. Long lasting systemic crisis and stagnation in this industry negatively influenced the economic potential and prospects for its development. The development of the fishing industry is of particular interest to the Primorye Territory, since this industry is directly related to the socioeconomic development of this particular region and the Far East as a whole. Today, the fishing industry of the Primorye Territory provides the bulk of fish products in the Far Eastern Federal District (FEFD): the production of marketable products amounted to 27.6 thous. tons in 2019, against 7.5 thous. tons a year earlier. The fishing industry is described by a variety of systemic external and internal factors that influence its performance. Development of managerial decisions, first of all, requires to define a set of factors as "levers" for improving business processes and developing tools of state support. The goal of the study is to identify and group the factors that influence the industrial complexes operation at the mesolevel (for example, the fishing industry of the Primorye Territory). The theoretical and methodological basis of the study was to use general methods of scientific and theoretical analysis to deepen the phenomena and concepts under study. The methods of analysis and synthesis were used in the article to consider and identify the factors that influence the performance of the fishing industry in the region, as well as to reveal connections between the elements, their interaction and contradictions. 11 30 2019 9075 9080 CC-BY-NC-ND 4.0 10.35940/BEIESP.CrossMarkPolicy www.ijrte.org true 10.35940/ijrte.D4534.118419 https://www.ijrte.org/portfolio-item/D4534118419/ Russian State Agrarian University named after K.A.

Wireless sensor network is formed with limited energy resources, easily compromised by an adversary because of hostile environments. Adversary may use compromised nodes to inject false reports and launch DoS attacks, thus, sensor nodes are prone to failure and which makes the network topology configurations highly dynamic in real world applications. A variety of en-route filtering schemes have been proposed to drop and defeat these attacks by using their own cryptographic methods. Some of them ask for a fixed path between a base station and each cluster, so they are not feasible for dynamic network. Additionally, other proposals do not consider various environmental variables in a dynamic environment, so they only choose static paths. In contrast, we consider topology changes, communication costs, the maximum number of key dissemination hops, and the spread of nodes for providing optimum filtering capacity. This paper presents a fuzzy-based adaptive multipath selection method in dynamic environment of a wireless sensor network. Our proposed method can adjust the optimized number of multipaths during key dissemination. Experimental results show that relatively higher filtering capacity with lower energy consumption and suitable nodes for highly dynamic networks. 11 30 2019 12377 12385 CC-BY-NC-ND 4.0 10.35940/BEIESP.CrossMarkPolicy www.ijrte.org true 10.35940/ijrte.D4545.118419 https://www.ijrte.org/portfolio-item/D4545118419/ Russian Presidential Academy of National Economy and Public Administration, Moscow, Russia.

At the same time, there is a steady decline in the rural population. At the present stage, agriculture cannot provide the entire rural population with jobs, because due to the implementation of modern technologies, the labor intensity of many production operations in agriculture is reduced. Only 19% of the Russian rural population are employed in agriculture, while the rest of the rural population are employed in non-agricultural sectors of the rural economy. Focusing on a single-profile structure of the rural economy, which is absolutely dominated by a single agricultural sector, cannot ensure sustainable development of rural areas. Because of this, the potential of rural areas should be unlocked through the integrated development of all sectors of the rural economy, including non-agricultural ones. 11 30 2019 9091 9095 CC-BY-NC-ND 4.0 10.35940/BEIESP.CrossMarkPolicy www.ijrte.org true 10.35940/ijrte.D4604.118419 https://www.ijrte.org/portfolio-item/D4604118419/ Department of Computer Science and Engineering, Maulana Azad National Institute of Technology, Bhopal 462003, India.

Linear cryptanalysis, a Known-Plaintext Attack, for symmetric block cipher works by constructing linear approximations of the non-linear components of the cipher. The only component which introduces non-linearity in the symmetric block cipher is an S-box. Using classical computing algorithms, the best known solution to find a linear approximation of a non-linear function, in this case an S-box, requires queries to the S-box and time-complexity, where is the input size of the S-box and is the output size. In this paper, a quantum algorithm is presented which can produce best linear approximations of a non-linear S-box using only queries to S-box with time-complexity. The proposed algorithm shows a significant improvement over the classical algorithm. Correctness proof of the proposed quantum algorithm is presented along with an example. 11 30 2019 9096 9099 CC-BY-NC-ND 4.0 10.35940/BEIESP.CrossMarkPolicy www.ijrte.org true 10.35940/ijrte.D4608.118419 https://www.ijrte.org/portfolio-item/D4608118419/ Textile Research Group, Faculty of Applied Sciences, Universiti Teknologi MARA, Shah Alam, Selangor, Malaysia, Nabila Talib* Mohd Rozi Ahmad Textile Research Group, Faculty of Applied Sciences, Universiti Teknologi MARA, Shah Alam, Selangor, Malaysia Khudzir Ismail Fuel and Biomass Energy Research Group, Universiti Teknologi MARA, Shah Alam, Malaysia Muhammad Ismail Ab Kadir Textile Research Group, Faculty of Applied Sciences, Universiti Teknologi MARA, Shah Alam, Selangor, Malaysia, Natural dyes come from plenty of sources including plants, animals, insects or microorganisms. At present, natural dyes are highly demanded in textile application. In this study, brown seaweed (Sargassum spinosum) extracts were utilized for silk coloration with the use of metallic salts mordants (Iron II Sulphate and Aluminium Sulphate) and biomordants (cinnamon and chitosan). Dyeing was performed with pre-mordanting and simultaneous mordanting methods. The dyed fabrics were analyzed in terms of color fastness properties to washing, perspiration, rubbing and light. The results revealed that seaweed dyes with cinnamon mordant gave darker shades and higher absorbency towards silk which is comparable to iron mordant. The approach of using biomordant is parallel to the sustainability demand of natural dyes in textile application. 11 30 2019 6897 6901 CC-BY-NC-ND 4.0 10.35940/BEIESP.CrossMarkPolicy www.ijrte.org true 10.35940/ijrte.D5173.118419 https://www.ijrte.org/portfolio-item/D5173118419/ Faculty of Mechanical Engineering, Universiti Teknologi MARA/Shah Alam, Selangor, Malaysia.

Sandwich structure made of metal sheet and foam core is widely used in various industries due to its excellent energy absorption and impact resistance properties. Recently, fiber reinforced polymers (FRP) such as carbon fiber reinforced polymer and glass fiber reinforced polymer have been used in sandwich panel as a face sheet. The addition of filler into FRP system is expected to enhance the mechanical properties and improve the specific strength of the resulted FRP. This paper presents the impact response of silica nanoparticles filled kenaf fiber reinforced polymer (KFRP) and basalt fiber reinforced polymer (BFRP) as a facesheet in sandwich structure. A series of nanocomposites, with 5wt%, 13wt% and 25wt% of silica nanoparticles were fabricated using mechanical stirrer. The KFRP and BFRP facesheets were fabricated using vacuum bagging method. The impact response of closed cell aluminium foam and natural FRP sandwich panel was investigated. It was found that, the addition of nanosilica into BFRP and KFRP facesheets results in higher energy absorbed required initiating the impact damage. The fractured surfaces of upper and lower face sheets and fracture mechanisms during impact test such as delamination between kenaf-nanomodified epoxy layers, basalt-nanomodified epoxy layers and aluminium core shear were evaluated. 11 30 2019 6902 6905 CC-BY-NC-ND 4.0 10.35940/BEIESP.CrossMarkPolicy www.ijrte.org true 10.35940/ijrte.D5174.118419 https://www.ijrte.org/portfolio-item/D5174118419/ Faculty of Mechanical Engineering, Universiti Teknologi MARA/Shah Alam, Selangor, Malaysia.

In this study, the effect of fibre arrangement and aluminium thin sheet on quasi-static indentation properties of fibre metal laminates (FML) based on glass fibre reinforced polymer composite (GFRP) and Aluminium (Al) was investigated. The woven and unidirectional types of glass fibre prepreg and 0.5mm, 1mm and 2 mm of Al sheet thickness were used in the fabrication of Glass fibre-Al FML systems. The GFRP and FML samples were fabricated using a combination of hand lay–up and hot press methods. Quasi-static indentation test was performed according to ASTM D6264. The results showed that the woven type of GFRP and FMLs exhibited the highest energy absorption as compared to those of unidirectional of GFRP and FMLs. It was observed that for the woven type specimens of GFRP and FMLs, the matrix cracking and fibre breakage/delamination triggered in weft and wrap direction, which showed diamond-shaped damage. While the damage surface of unidirectional GFRP and FMLs showed single axis orientation damage type that lateral with the direction of the fibre namely fibre splitting mechanism. The FML2 systems for both woven and unidirectional, that used 2mm thickness of Al, demonstrated the highest energy absorption when compared to the other FML systems. This shows that FMLs absorbed more energy when thicker Al sheet was used. 11 30 2019 6906 6911 CC-BY-NC-ND 4.0 10.35940/BEIESP.CrossMarkPolicy www.ijrte.org true 10.35940/ijrte.D5175.118419 https://www.ijrte.org/portfolio-item/D5175118419/ Integrated Separation Technology and Research Group (i-STRonG), Faculty of Chemical Engineering, Universiti Teknologi MARA, Shah Alam Selangor, Malaysia Puasa S.W.* Sulong N.A.

Oily sludge is one of the most significant solid waste materials generated by petroleum refinery plant. Due to high concentration of petroleum hydrocarbon (PHCs) that is considered as harmful and hazardous waste to human beings and environmental, the initiative was developed to minimize this issue by performing investigation on cationic plant-based esterquat surfactant for oil recovery and heavy metal removal from oily sludge via Surfactant-enhanced Oil Recovery (SEOR). Based on the research finding, oily sludge has significant amount of volatile matters (32.22 wt%) which consists of hazardous PAHs that needs to be removed from oily sludge. Cationic esterquat surfactant has been introduced in removal of heavy metal and oil from oily sludge. Result shows the CMCs of cationic esterquat surfactant obtained was about 125mg/L via conductivity method and spectrophotometric method. The percentage of oil recovery obtained was 74.62% at esterquat concentration of 125 mg/L with significant removal on chromium (Cr) and lead (Pb). This finding shows the potential of cationic esterquat surfactant in enhancing the oil and metal removal from oily sludge 11 30 2019 6912 6917 CC-BY-NC-ND 4.0 10.35940/BEIESP.CrossMarkPolicy www.ijrte.org true 10.35940/ijrte.D5176.118419 https://www.ijrte.org/portfolio-item/D5176118419/ Centre of Mathematics Studies, Faculty of Computer and Mathematical Sciences, MARA University of Technology, Shah Alam, Selangor, Malaysia.

Identification and verification are the fundamental process in biometrics recognition system. Research indicates that palmprint, as one of the biometric recognitions system is commonly used for human identification. It is because there are many features and information contained inside the palmprint that can be used in the identification process. However, only a small region of the palmprint can be extracted using the existing palmprint region of interest (ROI) extraction algorithms. This has become a problem for identification systems due to negligible and loss of important features which are located outside the ROI. Hence, it is a necessity to improve the palmprint ROI extraction algorithm whereby bigger palmprint ROI can be extracted using this algorithm. Therefore, a larger fixed size extraction algorithm for palmprint ROI is proposed where the extraction region is larger so that more important identification features can be captured inside these ROIs. The performance between proposed and existing extraction algorithms are tested based on two characteristics which are the palmprint ROI extraction area and the comparison of feature creases extracted in a palmprint ROI. The results show that 300x300 fixed size ROI is able to capture 13 out of 14 creases attributes for palmprint identification. This implies that the proposed extraction algorithm shows a promising method of extraction as compared to the existing algorithms. 11 30 2019 6918 6923 CC-BY-NC-ND 4.0 10.35940/BEIESP.CrossMarkPolicy www.ijrte.org true 10.35940/ijrte.D5177.118419 https://www.ijrte.org/portfolio-item/D5177118419/ Faculty of Chemical Engineering, Universiti Teknologi MARA, 40450 Shah Alam, Selangor, Malaysia.

The aim of this experiment is to study the effect of varying the PVA concentrations on the performance of the TFC membranes on the removal of mercury and to determine their antifouling behaviour. Four different concentrations of PVA were selected; 2 wt.%, 3 wt.%, 5 wt.% and 6 wt.%. Results showed that the increase concentration of PVA leads to good removal of mercury ions, and good antifouling properties which was portrayed through high FRR and RFR respectively, and low IFR. The suitable concentration of PVA was found at 3 wt. %, where it has yield TFC membrane that able to remove all the mercury ions from the solution even after 30 minutes filtration time with sufficient amount of flux as compared to other membranes. It also portrays good anti fouling behaviour due to low IFR and average value of RFR (66%). Therefore, this study concludes that the fabricated thin film composite membrane suitable to be used in membrane filtration for heavy metal removal. 11 30 2019 6924 6928 CC-BY-NC-ND 4.0 10.35940/BEIESP.CrossMarkPolicy www.ijrte.org true 10.35940/ijrte.D5178.118419 https://www.ijrte.org/portfolio-item/D5178118419/ Centre for System Engineering Studies, Faculty of Electrical Engineering, Universiti Teknologi MARA, 40450 Shah Alam, Selangor, Malaysia.

This project presents a real time reading of Proportional Integral Derivative (PID) controller tuning. The system will control the output speed of the vehicle based on the given input speed by implementing the PID controller. The controller helps in ensuring that the output speed achieves the same as the input speed given and does not depart. The speed of car is controlled by controlling a linear motor that is attached to a current sensor and an incremental encoder as a feedback to calculate speed. The output reading of speed is in km/h. Raspberry Pi 3B+ is used as microcontroller and python language is used in order to program the vehicle speed. The vehicle is tested and PID parameter are calculated. The system is then run by using PID parameter and it shows that expected PID controller is stable and able to control the car’s speed. 11 30 2019 6929 6933 CC-BY-NC-ND 4.0 10.35940/BEIESP.CrossMarkPolicy www.ijrte.org true 10.35940/ijrte.D5179.118419 https://www.ijrte.org/portfolio-item/D5179118419/ Agricultural Biotechnology Research Group, Faculty of Plantation and Agrotechnology, Universiti Teknologi MARA, Shah Alam, Selangor, Malaysia.

The present work was carried out to investigate the effects of gamma radiation on regeneration of Capsicum annuum L. var Kulai via in vitro. Seeds of C. annuum were irradiated with various doses of gamma ray (0, 20, 40, 60, 80, 100, 200, 300, 400, 500, and 600 Gy) emitted from the Caesium-137 source at the rate of 4.31 Gy per minute. Irradiated seeds grown on MS medium without hormone for hypocotyl and cotyledon preparation as explant for in vitro regeneration. Seed germination rate revealed significant variation between treatments, and seeds started to germinate between 6 to 17 days. Irradiated seeds between 0-60 Gy were observed to germinate in less than 10 days. All explants including hypocotyl and cotyledon were cultured on MS medium with different concentrations of BAP in combination with AgNO3 to observe the response of these explants to different hormone concentrations. From the observation, calluses were induced in 90% of hypocotyl and cotyledon explants in all treatments. The characteristics of calluses were varied with greenish friable, greenish compact, yellowish watery, yellowish friable and yellowish compact. In other treatments, calluses were found in purple, bright yellow and yellowish orange. On the other hand, shoot regeneration was observed in treatment between 40-100 Gy. In conclusion, gamma radiation gave impact on seed germination, seedling growth performance, in vitro callus formation and shoot regeneration of Capsicum annuum var.

Noorainol Faiz Noor Haris Jamaluddin Mahmud* Faculty of Mechanical Engineering, Universiti Teknologi MARA, Shah Alam, Selangor Malaysia Incorporation of natural fibers into composites have been continuously researched in moving towards a greener environment. As environmental issues such as climate change and global warming is becoming severe, green technology is one of the ways to reduce it. Hevea brasiliensis or commonly called rubber tree produced a lot of sawdust during the conversion of the raw material into product. The sawdust is known as an agricultural waste which has no economic value. Therefore, this study for the first time attempts to utilize the Hevea brasiliensis sawdust by incorporating it with silicone rubber in the making of a new biocomposite material. The samples were prepared in two weight compositions, 0 wt% and 16 wt% in accordance to ASTM D412. Tensile properties of biocomposite was then determined using 3382 Universal Testing Machine 100kN (Instron, U.S.A., 2008). Neo Hookean hyperelastic model was employed where the material constant, C1 values were obtained. The graph plotted shows that the hyperelastic model used can mimic the deformation behavior of silicone biocomposites. The material constants are observed to increase as Hevea brasiliensis fiber are introduced into it. Hence, it can be concluded that pure silicone rubber has higher tensile strength compared to 16 wt% hevea brasiliensis – silicone biocomposite and the addition of fiber increase the stiffness properties of material produced. 11 30 2019 6939 6943 CC-BY-NC-ND 4.0 10.35940/BEIESP.CrossMarkPolicy www.ijrte.org true 10.35940/ijrte.D5181.118419 https://www.ijrte.org/portfolio-item/D5181118419/ Faculty of Mechanical Engineering, Universiti Teknologi MARA, 40450 Shah Alam, Selangor, Malaysia.

They are becoming a promising high potential reinforcement material for composites and thus have drawn attention from many researchers. Apart from their well-known benefits such as environmental friendly, low cost and biodegradability compared to synthetic fibres, they also have low density, minimal abrasive wear to machinery, high specific strength and modulus and can be recycled thermally. In recent years, kenaf fibres have appeared as one of the outstanding materials being used in the textile, building, plastics and automotive industries. However, it cannot be used in heavy applications. Thus hybridization with fibreglass may improve the overall mechanical properties of the composite materials. Kenaf/woven fibreglass unsaturated polyester composites was fabricated using a combination of hand lay-up and cold-press methods. A sandwich configuration with the skin being fibreglass and the core made of kenaf fibre is employed in this work. It can be surmised that the flexural strength, fracture and impact toughness of this hybrid material are influenced by fibreglass at skin layer rather than matrix strength. 11 30 2019 6944 6949 CC-BY-NC-ND 4.0 10.35940/BEIESP.CrossMarkPolicy www.ijrte.org true 10.35940/ijrte.D5182.118419 https://www.ijrte.org/portfolio-item/D5182118419/ Faculty of Mechanical Engineering, Universiti Teknologi MARA, Shah Alam, Malaysia.

This study aims to produce a Co-Ni-Fe alloy coating on a mild steel hollow cylinder shape by electrodeposition process and analyze the effect of different pH on the corrosion performance of the alloy coating. During the electrodeposition process, the temperature and time are set to 50°C and 30 minutes, respectively. Different pH value consisting of pH 2.1 (strong acid), 5.2 (weak acid), 6.9 (neutral), 8.4 (weak alkali) and 12.3 (strong alkali) are used. From the results obtained it was found that the deposited Co-Ni-Fe alloy has excellent corrosion performance. Corrosion rate obtained for strong acid, weak acid, neutral, weak alkali and strong alkali are 5.88 mmpy, 2.95 mmpy, 1.17 mmpy, 2.16 mmpy and 5.72 mmpy, respectively. Hence this studied showed that Co-Ni-Fe coating alloy could be used as an alternative to prevent against corrosion due to its high corrosion resistance as well as high microhardness. 11 30 2019 6950 6955 CC-BY-NC-ND 4.0 10.35940/BEIESP.CrossMarkPolicy www.ijrte.org true 10.35940/ijrte.D5183.118419 https://www.ijrte.org/portfolio-item/D5183118419/ Faculty of Mechanical Engineering, Universiti Teknologi MARA, Shah Alam Selangor, Malaysia, Siti Norazlini Abd Aziz Muhaimin bin Kamarul Bahrain Faculty of Mechanical Engineering, Universiti Teknologi MARA, Shah Alam Selangor, Malaysia Mimi Azlina Abu Bakar* Faculty of Mechanical Engineering, Universiti Teknologi MARA, Shah Alam Selangor, Malaysia, Currently, the studies of the mechanical behaviour of natural fibre composites have become influential among researchers due to its environmentally friendly, useful by-product and cheap. Due to this it becomes a potential material to be included in the composite materials as a reinforcement. The aim of this study is to investigate the mechanical properties of sugarcane powder reinforced epoxy composites under flexural and Izod impact tests. The sugarcane powder was processed using the crushing machine and planetary mono mill machine and it was added into the epoxy matrix with four different compositions (5 vol%, 10 vol%, 15 vol%, and 20 vol%). The morphological surfaces of the composite after the mechanical tests were observed using a Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM). It was found that the impact strength of the composites decreased with the increase of powder compositions with a range of between 5.7 kJ/m2 to 2.7 kJ/m2. The flexure modulus, on the contrary, showed an increment trend with the increase in powder loading with a modulus ranged in between 757 MPa to 1208 MPa. The potential of this natural fiber have significant contribution on the properties of natural fibres polymer composites. Natural waste consumption of sugarcane fiber could decrease the usage of synthetic polymers and provide the environmental friendly material for further application. 11 30 2019 6956 6961 CC-BY-NC-ND 4.0 10.35940/BEIESP.CrossMarkPolicy www.ijrte.org true 10.35940/ijrte.D5184.118419 https://www.ijrte.org/portfolio-item/D5184118419/ Faculty of Mechanical Engineering, Universiti Teknologi MARA, Shah Alam, Selangor, Malaysia Mohd Nor Azmi Ab Patar* Jamaluddin Mahmud Faculty of Mechanical Engineering, Universiti Teknologi MARA, Shah Alam, Selangor, Malaysia Hokyoo Lee Department of Mechanical and Control Engineering, Niigata Institute of Technology, Japan. Transtibial amputation is one of the common surgical procedure involved removal of lower limbs specifically below the knee. The need of amputation was caused by major accidents or diseases. Prosthetic socket was an important part as it kept the residual limb in place. It should allow amputee to perform daily activities without caused any pains. Most amputees reviewed the socket’s design caused pain on their residual limb. This project was purposed to analyse the pressure distribution on the prosthetic socket design. Design of the socket was based on stump’s condition which verified from the hospitals. Autodesk Meshmixer software was used to remodel the socket design from 3D Computer Aided Design (CAD) data of real stump. Pressure sensors measured the pressure exerted due to contact between socket and stump. The measured pressure distribution was analysed according to the pressure tolerant and sensitive areas to avoid the uncomfortable pain. The simulation of socket design was simulated using Finite Element Method (FEM) in ANSYS Static Structural. FEM indicated the behaviour of the socket during static and dynamic condition. Then, prosthetic sockets were fabricated in-house manufacturing process based on Fused Deposition Modelling (FDM) technology using 2.85-mm filament of polyamide nylon (PA). Thus, the tensile properties of the nylon socket material were determined according to ASTM D638. The evaluated stress was 11.30 MPa at the mid-stance that proved the material was highly strength to support the load. The structural integrity of the complete prosthesis socket should be investigated according to ISO 10328 for future improvement. 11 30 2019 6972 6966 CC-BY-NC-ND 4.0 10.35940/BEIESP.CrossMarkPolicy www.ijrte.org true 10.35940/ijrte.D5185.118419 https://www.ijrte.org/portfolio-item/D5185118419/ Mechatronics Section, Electrical Engineering Department, German Malaysian Institute (GMI), Kajang, Selangor, Malaysia.

Kenaf is known for many years as a typical crop that can be used in various applications such as in automotive, and building structure. Along with the depletion and environmental issues raised nowadays by excessively used of man-made synthetic fibres make the natural fibre to become popular and favourable to be implemented. This paper discusses on the development of long kenaf fibre reinforced polyester matrix composite. Total weight of about 40% fibre fraction was selected. In this study, the addition of about 10% weight fraction of fibreglass in the composite system is needed in order to strengthen the composite material and also to retain its reliability and robustness in their applications. Thus, preparation of two different layer arrangement of kenaf and fibreglass were conducted viz. (i) kenaf at inner layer and fibreglass at outer layer ([0o90o]K/FG2p/[90o0o]k[0o90o]K) (ii) kenaf at outer layer and fibreglass at inner layer (FG/[0o90o/90o0o]K/FG). All configuration samples were fabricated by hand lay-up and cold press technique. Fracture toughness testing was carried out using a single edge notched bend specimen at a loading rate of 10mm/min. All samples were prepared according to ASTM D5045 (Standard Test Methods for Plane-Strain Fracture Toughness and Strain Energy Release Rate of Plastic Materials). Results obtained from SENB test were then evaluated and discussed. It can be used as a guideline or reference for further research on this type of polymer composite. 11 30 2019 6967 6971 CC-BY-NC-ND 4.0 10.35940/BEIESP.CrossMarkPolicy www.ijrte.org true 10.35940/ijrte.D5186.118419 https://www.ijrte.org/portfolio-item/D5186118419/ Fakulti Kejuruteraan Mekanikal, Universiti Teknologi MARA, Shah Alam Selangor.

The use of natural fiber composite has been widely promoted in many industries such as construction, automotive and even aerospace. Natural fibers can be extracted from plants that are abundantly available in the form of waste such as sunflower seed shells (SSS) and groundnut shells (GNS). These fibers were chosen as the reinforcement in epoxy to form composites. The performance of composites was evaluated following the ASTM D3039 and ASTM D790 for tensile and flexural tests respectively. Eight types of composites were prepared using SSS and GNS fibers as reinforcement and epoxy as the matrix with the fiber content of 20wt %. The fibers were untreated and treated with Sodium Hydroxide (NaOH) at various concentrations (6%, 10%, 15%, and 20%) and soaking time (24, 48 and 72 hours). The treatment has successfully enhanced the mechanical properties of both composites, namely SSS/epoxy and GNS/epoxy composites. The SSS/epoxy composite has the best mechanical properties when the fibers were treated for 48 hours using 6% of NaOH that produced 22 MPa and 13 MPa of tensile and flexural strength respectively. Meanwhile, the treatment on groundnut shells with 10% sodium Hydroxide for 24 hours has increased the Flexural strength tremendously (53%), however no significant effect on the tensile strength. The same trend was also observed on the tensile and flexural modulus. The increase of 41% in flexural modulus after treatment with 10% NaOH for 24 hours was also the evidence of mechanical properties enhancement. The evidence of improved fiber and matrix bonding after fiber treatment was also observed using a scanning electron microscope (SEM). The SSS/epoxy composites performed better in tensile application, meanwhile the GNS/epoxy composites are good in flexural application. 11 30 2019 6972 6977 CC-BY-NC-ND 4.0 10.35940/BEIESP.CrossMarkPolicy www.ijrte.org true 10.35940/ijrte.D5187.118419 https://www.ijrte.org/portfolio-item/D5187118419/ Fabrication and Joining Section, University Kuala Lumpur Malaysia France Institute, 43650 Bandar Baru Bangi, Selangor, Malaysia.

This paper presents an experimental investigation of the weld bonding of low carbon steel (JIS G3141) together with adhesive layers to increase the mechanical properties of weld bonding. Epoxy adhesive was used in this research applied on the sheet thickness of 1.2 mm. The weld-bonding was carried out by applying layer of adhesive followed by resistance spot welding on surface samples. The relative properties and characteristics of the resulting weld-bonded-adhesive joints are evaluated and compared with the conventional spot-welding through tensile-shear, peel, hardness tests and macro-etching observations. The strength of weld bond joints was calculated and compared with those in as-weld and adhesive-bond joints. Results showed that the strength of weld-bond adhesive is higher than as-weld specimen. The hardness distribution of weld bond adhesive joints was investigated, at three regions i.e. base metal (BM), the heat-affected zone (HAZ), and the fusion zone (FZ) using micro-hardness Vickers machine. It can conclude that the presence of adhesive does not affect the hardness of weld-bonded. From macro- etching observation, the layer adhesive influenced the weld bond via the size nugget of weld-bonded which is smaller than as-weld. The introduction of adhesive layer in spot welding improves the joint strength and quality of spot weld. 11 30 2019 6978 6982 CC-BY-NC-ND 4.0 10.35940/BEIESP.CrossMarkPolicy www.ijrte.org true 10.35940/ijrte.D5188.118419 https://www.ijrte.org/portfolio-item/D5188118419/
